Clean Out Of Place (COP) System
COP Systems (Clean-Out-of-Place) is an efficient method of cleaning equipment by removing components from their operational area and transferring them to a designated cleaning station. These systems ensure thorough cleaning of parts that are challenging to clean in place, improving hygiene, operational safety, and compliance with regulatory standards. It is commonly used in industries like food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing.
Methods
- Manual Cleaning: Equipment is cleaned by hand using brushes, sponges, or other manual tools with cleaning solutions to ensure thorough sanitation.
- Mechanical Cleaning: Automated or semi-automated cleaning equipment, such as jets or sprays, is used to clean parts efficiently with minimal manual intervention.
- Foam Cleaning: Cleaning agents are applied as foam to enhance contact time on surfaces, making it easier to clean stubborn residues and contaminants.
- Dry Cleaning: Used for equipment sensitive to water or in areas where water-based cleaning is impractical, employing dry cleaning agents, brushes, or vacuums to remove dirt and debris.

COP Cleaning Equipment
A Mobile Foaming Machine is a portable cleaning system that applies dense foam for effective dirt and residue removal. Ideal for industries like food processing, it enhances hygiene, reduces chemical use, and ensures efficient cleaning on various surfaces, including hard-to-reach areas.
Centralized Foaming System A centralized foaming system uses a single foam generator to supply foam through pipelines to multiple cleaning stations. This setup is ideal for large facilities, offering consistent foam quality, reduced equipment redundancy, and efficient cleaning across multiple areas.
Decentralized Foaming System A decentralized system features individual foam units located at each cleaning station. This setup provides flexibility, allowing customized cleaning solutions for specific areas, and is best suited for smaller or varied cleaning requirements.
COP Cleaning Procedure
The COP (Clean-Out-of-Place) cleaning procedure involves systematically cleaning disassembled equipment components to ensure thorough sanitation and optimal performance. This structured approach ensures equipment hygiene, compliance with industry standards, and operational efficiency
